A new drama series is being developed by Amazon’s Undone and Netflix’s Apollo 10½ producer with Moritz Borman’s Krautpack. The series is based on the Baader Meinhof Gang, the notorious German terrorist organization.
The series, titled Ghost Generation, has BBC One’s The Split writer Jane Eden attached.
The Dutch and German producers are taking Ghost Generation to global streamers and local networks this week. Cast is not yet set.
Inspired by real life events about the notorious 1970s left wing German terrorist group, the series features two former German terrorists, now parents, who have spent the last two decades undercover but are being hunted by their former gang leader. When he tracks them down, having just been released from prison, he threatens to expose the truth to the world, forcing the couple to partake in a series of robberies or risk their new lives being completely destroyed.
